Square Poems 16: Warthog Acrostic

Rating: 5.0

Watch out for his razor tusk,
And he also smells of musk.
Runs faster than you would think
Truly quicker than a wink.
His hair is coarse and brittle.
Of course, avoid his spittle.
Got to hide before the dusk.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
I call these square poems because they have the same number of syllables per line as there are lines in the poem. For example, a four-line poem would have four syllables per line, and a six-line poem would have six syllables per line.

This poem has seven lines, so it has seven syllables per line.

Square poems do not have to rhyme, and they do not have to be acrostics.
